In the immortal words of the Go-Go's
"Vacation...All I ever wanted..."
It was great to have a few days off from work. My friend Ashlee was visiting from LA so I thought a quick trip up to Myrtle Beach would be fun. We were supposed to go to Hard Rock Park but I lost interest. I'd still like to check it out sometime. We had a nice, relaxing time there except for the few occasions when she was having asthma attacks. Yeah, those were fun. She had lost her inhaler back in LA and I guess the air at the beach didn't agree with her. It was pretty scary actually. Once we were back in Summerville she seemed to be fine.
Myrtle Beach was a blast. I'd been there 2x before but don't remember much about it. The weather was great and it cooled down at night so we could sleep with the door open to the ocean (love that!). We had a great view...
And I have to be accountable that while I was on vacation from work I was also kind of on vacation from my diet. I wasn't HORRIBLE but I wasn't great either. Let me tell you, it was worth it to have one of the best burgers I've ever had. And I love me some burgers so I know. As it turns out, there are a couple of locations in the Charleston area so I'll have to visit them during my next diet vacation.
I'm sad to be back at work but I really loved having that time off. Ok, don't laugh but I'll probably take a day or two off during the Olympics. I'm kind of a freak for the Olympics and I'm SUPER curious about China too. I'm interested in how much we'll be able to see of the real China and not the China they want us to see. Plus the Olympics are after my class is done and before fall term starts so I figured it'd be a good last time to take a break.

Ahhh, that looked like such a nice vacation! I'm glad you guys had such a good time!
And I don't think it's weird to take time off to watch The Olympics. It's better than taking a day off to smoke crack.
Ooooh, now there's an idea. Watching the Olympics whilst high on the crack. That'd give rhythmic gymspastics a whole new meaning.
Ah... I wish I would have gotten to the beach on my vacation! Maybe there is still a chance before the end of the summer!
Oh and we have a 5 Guys near us too!
Man, there are a few Five Guys in Ohio, but not a one is close to us. Dang it!
I was even thinking of studying for my exam on the beach this weekend. Skin cancer or not, I like having a little color on my face. Plus I hate having pasty white legs! But I was very, very careful about not getting burned.
You must use sunscreen! You must!
